Six Pillars soto88 Privacy


Every decision concerning our members' personal data is made based on six core principles that form the foundation of trust between soto88 and its members.

Purpose-Driven Collection

Your personal data is collected only for specific and legitimate purposes — namely account management, payment processing, KYC identity verification, and legal compliance. No data is collected without clear justification.

Layered Encryption

All data in transit is protected with TLS 1.3, while stored data is encrypted using AES-256. The soto88 server infrastructure undergoes independent security audits at regular intervals to ensure no vulnerabilities are exposed.

Member Controls

You have the full right to access, amend, download, or request deletion of your personal data at any time through our support channels. Requests will be processed within 14 working days.

No Data Sales

Soto88 has never and will never sell, rent, or trade members' personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your data belongs entirely to you.

Restricted Access

Only authorised soto88 staff with a legitimate operational need are permitted to access member personal data. All access is logged, monitored, and regularly audited to prevent internal misuse.

Periodic Review

This Privacy Policy is reviewed and updated periodically to ensure it remains aligned with changes in law, technology, and global data protection best practices.

Important Note: By registering or using the soto88 platform, you are deemed to have read and fully agreed to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of our platform and contact us for account deletion.

Third-Party Data Sharing & Disclosure

Soto88 understands how sensitive your personal data is, and we take an extremely careful approach when it comes to sharing your information. As a matter of policy, we does not share, sell, or disclose your personal data to external parties except in the following limited and controlled circumstances:

  • Trusted Service Providers: Third-party companies that assist us in operating the platform — such as payment processors, cloud service providers, and KYC verification companies — are all bound by strict confidentiality agreements and may only use data for the purposes specified.
  • Legal Compliance: When required by court order, regulatory body directive, or legitimate legal requirement. In such cases, we will disclose only the minimum necessary information.
  • Fraud Prevention: Share information with industry fraud prevention networks or relevant bodies to protect the integrity of our platform and member community as a whole.
  • Your Explicit Consent: If you have explicitly provided consent to share your data for a specific purpose that has been clearly explained.

All third-party service providers working with soto88 are vetted and undergo a security risk assessment before being granted access to any member data. They are required to comply with data protection standards equal to or higher than those of soto88.

Cross-Border Data Transfers: If your data needs to be transferred outside Malaysia for operational purposes (e.g., to cloud servers), such transfers are only made to jurisdictions with adequate data protection and are subject to binding data protection agreements.

Data Storage & Security Measures

The security of your personal data is an absolute priority for soto88. We invest seriously in the latest cybersecurity infrastructure to ensure your information is always protected against both internal and external threats.

Technical Measures Used:

  • Encryption of data in transit using the protocol TLS 1.3 with a strong cipher suite.
  • Encryption of stored data using AES-256 — the standard used by global financial institutions.
  • Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) active 24/7.
  • Real-time security log monitoring with automated alerts for unusual activity.
  • Regular encrypted data backups to geographically separate locations for service continuity.
  • Mandatory Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for all internal admin access.
  • Penetration testing by independent security firms at least twice a year.

Data Retention Period: Your personal data will be retained for the duration your account is active, plus 7 years after account closure to fulfil legal record-keeping and financial audit requirements. After this period, data will be securely deleted using irreversible erasure methods.

In the Event of a Data Breach: While we take every reasonable precaution, no system is 100% guaranteed. In the event of a data breach affecting your information, soto88 will notify you within 72 hours after a breach is identified, in line with industry best practices.
